Too much blur Hey man everything is nice and clean but in the app drawer sometimes the icons get blur and sometimes the icons are shifted to the right side cause I know I have galaxy y in which some launchers work but some don't work. This is the first launcher I have seen which works but its totally stupid. For five stars please fix

Wow! I just updated my Samsung galaxy s to gingerbread and i thought a launcher was pointless....but then again, this launcher is sooooo smooth when ran on gingerbread! Anyone who hasnt updated yuur SGs to gingerbread, do it then install this launcher!!

Frustrating Though it does work as advertised, Ive found in to be INCREDIBLY slow. For instance, launching apps takes longer, and when returning to the home screen it has to reload each and every widget and app shortcut. Ultimately, it works. But its just too slow for me to ever want to use it. (fyi I'm using it on the Evo 4G)

my new favorite launcher very little customization can be made, but this launcher runs so good i don't care. i might have wanted more buttons at the bottom but compared to the bloated monster launcher pro is or to how bad touchwiz is this one is perfect.

So fast, smooth and simple: Smoother than most launchers while occupying less RAM;

Testimonials► "Your phone will surely love this Best launcher ever. So much themes to choose from. Very neat and nice looking interface. Cannot ask for more."► "Very good application it improve my mobile speed, and doesn't effect battery life, i loved it.The free apps!"► "One if the best One of the best lauchers I have seen. Fast, intuitive and well designed."► "So fast and smooth I like it very much easy to use and beautiful more themes and lots of things.Waiting for themes for dialpad, whatsapp and many more!"

Chameleon Launcher is a Home Screen replacement. This version will run on both phones and tablet devices. It lets you create multiple home screens, each with your own layout of Widgets and Apps. The Chameleon app includes an innovative context based home screen system giving you the most relevant information you want - when you want it.

The Next Generation of Widgets.

Android widgets are not all created equally - and that's the problem - so we decided to raise the bar. The result is widgets that look beautiful together and are as easy to layout as drawing on a screen. Take a look at some of our other widgets or build your own with our custom API.

Your information needs change throughout your day, so Cwe have included an innovative context system. You can create context rules based on GPS locations, WiFi networks and time ranges, allowing you to define which Home Screen is the most relevant for any situation.

App Tray & Launcher

Chameleon doesn't just let you customize your Home Screens with the widgets you want. It also lets you customize your own mini App Tray. Giving you the apps you want up front, without having to swim through a large grid of apps.

Super Easy To Customize

Quickly set up Home Screens, Widgets, App Trays, and Wallpapers all with a few gestures.

Finger Gesture Launcher is a very useful app if you usually use several applications at once, such as chatting with someone while surfing the internet or having a conversation on Facebook while writing with someone else on Whatsapp.

Finger brings shortcuts that allow jumping from one app to another by simply tracing a gesture with a finger on the screen.

In addition to the possibility of having shortcuts to open applications, Finger Gesture Launcher offers the ability to make calls, opening websites in your browser, change system settings, simulate the home button or lock the screen among others. All this by simply drawing a gesture on the screen with your finger.

Forget access the app drawer to navigate between your applications. Accelerate and streamline the use of your Smartphone, while still interacting with the rest of your applications.

SwipePad is a launcher panel overlay, the fastest app switcher. With a single swipe gesture, you can launch anything from within any app.

It's extraordinarily simple and intuitive to use:1. Touch down a pre-set edge of the screen;2. Move your finger towards the center of the screen so the pad will emerge;3. Release your finger on a specific slot to action.

That's it! This will bring your multitasking to a new level:)

Some notes:★ A pad can hold a mix of apps, shortcuts, bookmarks, contacts etc. With widgetpad add-on, it can even launch a widget from anywhere!

★ This is not a home app, your home key preference is kept (works with all 3rd party home apps like Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher, ADW Launcher, Go Launcher EX etc.)

★ The app under SwipePad keeps running: no interruption

★ Memory & battery friendly

★ "DIRECTLY CALL PHONE NUMBERS" permission is required by Android system dialer shortcut. So you can set up a quick dial portal, and call your favorite contact with a single swipe.

Ideas and suggestions are welcomed:) http://swipepad.uservoice.com

You could help with localization: translate the app into your languagehttp://crowdin.net/project/swipepad

1. By touching Hotspot (the gesture area that are always visible on the screen), you can call the functions corresponding to the gesture.2. By registering items to Launcher, you will be able to start them at any time quickly.

Gestures that can be registered in Hotspot-> Five direction swipe-> Single-tap-> Double-tap-> Long-press

Usage of permissions* Storage - To backup/restore settings to SDcard.* Other Application UI - To put hotspot on screen.* Your applications information - To show recent used apps in launcher.* Phone calls - To call directly when you use "call directry shortcut".

!NEW! moved swipe functions to new free app 'CircleLauncher Swipe'

You can add some frequently used apps, contacts or bookmarks to this launcher and start those apps, contacts or bookmarks with one click from a circle. Use the included launcher icons or use a icon from any CircleLauncher icon pack. If you slide over the icons, they are animated a little bit mac-like ... just try it!

Parallax FX [beta]: look behind the widget like on iOS7! This effect can be enabled in the settings: 'More Settings' > 'More ...' > 'Parallax FX' - the result is highly dependent on the sensor in your phone ... some are perfect, other will not work very well. Looks best with '3D Image Live Wallpaper' :-)

Drag down from the top left corner of your screen and orbs will fall into place, giving you quick access to various features of your phone. Call and text friends, launch your favorite apps via shortcuts, control music, and more using the various orbs.

SAO is built to be extendable. There are many free and paid themes and extensions available in the Store. Themes update the images, sounds, and fonts used in the app creating a completely different experience. Extensions, on the other hand, are additional orbs that appear when downloading other apps. SMS, for example, is a free extension for phones.

Both themes and extensions have an API for those who want to truly customize the experience. The documentation is still in it's infancy, so don't feel afraid to email us at xlythe@gmail.com for additional help or to submit an app to the Store.http://xlythe.com/saolauncher/theme.htmlhttp://xlythe.com/saolauncher/extension.html

FAQ:

Q: Can I help translate the app to my language?A: Sure! You can now help out with translating using Localize ( https://www.localize.im/v/dq ).

Q: Can I help test new features or recommend ideas?A: Of course! Join our community ( https://plus.google.com/communities/106623201559847991380 ) and, if you're interested in being on the cutting edge, sign up for Testing. We'll do our best to address bugs promptly.

Q: How do I use themes?A: Install the theme, then go into Options, Themes. You should see it as a choice aside Default.

Q: My extensions aren't working (or... anything isn't working).A: Try rebooting. If it still doesn't work, feel free to send us an email ( support@xlythe.com ) or report it in the community.

Q: Why can't I uninstall the app?A: It's probably set as a Device Administrator (an old feature from Log Out). Go into Settings, Security, Device Administrators, and uncheck SAO Launcher.

Q: Why is log out missing?A: Log out required Device Administrator, which made it difficult to uninstall the app.

Q: How do I get sms to pop up?A: Install the SMS extension - it's another app, you can find it in the Store.

Q: Why is there a delay launching the app after pressing the Home button?A: Android introduces a 5sec delay for all services after the Home button is pressed. There is no way to get around this.

Q: Why can't I click under the swipe area?A: It's an anti-keylogging feature of Android's. There is no way to get around this.

Q: Why do I still see my old SMS notifications after installing the extension?A: I can't touch another app's notifications. Luckily, the default SMS app lets you disable notifications in settings.

Q: Why can't I hear any sound?A: There are different streams (System, Notification, Media). Some phones disable System, the stream usually reserved for button clicks. If you have one of those phones, you'll have to change the stream in Options.

Q: This isn't a launcher! Why claim it is?A: It is... Sort of. It launches apps. It is not meant to replace your default launcher, though.

UPDATES: You may have noticed I haven't updated this for ages. Sorry. I bought a Nexus 4 and so I don't need this any more and don't have motivation to update it.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. Another developer has compiled the latest launchers from Google - search for "Digital Cookies" in the play store.2. Apex Launcher

----------------------

Google's launcher from Android 4.1 Jellybean, available for you, good gentleperson, right here, right now. No ads. No catches.

WHY DO I HAVE TO CHOOSE THE WIDGETS TWICE?!

Unfortunately it has to be this way. Sorry. It is due to Google cheating slightly with widget security.

I previously said that it "will likely never be fixed by Google, 'cause it doesn't affect them". Well I guess I have to eat my words because in Android 4.1 they fixed it! If you run this app on Android 4.1 it won't ask you to pick your widgets twice. Whether you'll actually ever get Android 4.1 is a-whole-nother story.

Oh yeah, also please don't rate it low because it doesn't have many features. That is kind of the point - it has exactly the same features as in the stock app. If you want more, check out Apex Launcher. :-)

If you want ICS icons, install ICS apps! The launcher does not decide the icons.

Automatically open bluetooth settings, where you can decide to pair, make discoverable, or do any number of other tasks. Save yourself the hassle of clicking menu->settings->wireless->bluetooth. Put this app on your homescreen and it's all one click away

This is a key to unlock ICS Launcher Plus features. You must have ICS Launcher installed to use this key and unlock the plus features. ICS Launcher is a free app and is a quick download. Just search for ICS Launcher.

If you need help, be sure to contact us at support@syndicateapps.com

What do you get with ICS+?

★Extra features and tweaks that free users can't access★Text color tweaks★Font size tweaks★Battery tweaks★The ability to change the launcher status bar text color★Change the battery indicator type★No ads or search shortcuts★More control over the launcher and its actions

★If you are confused about where the launcher went contact us ASAP!★The pro version is now a key! You need to have the free version installed in order to continue using ICS Launcher★This key must be installed to continue using ICS+ features★If your ICS+ features do not unlock or you need help with anything, be sure to contact us via email at support@syndicateapps.com or visit our website!★Click menu hardware key to access launcher and system settings menus.★Some 3rd party apps like Beautiful Widgets are not yet compatible with ICS Launcher and may cause Force Close errors. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause but there are alternatives to these widgets on the market that you can try while we are working on a fix. ★If you are still experiencing Force Close errors, try clearing the launcher cache by pressing your "menu" key, then select "Manage Apps" and "ICS 4.0 Launcher" under the "All" tab.

What is it?CPU-Sleeper is for the extreme power users!

How does it work?Since we have Quad Core CPUs, we have a CPU 0 and a CPU1/2/3, while the screen is off we really only need to have 1 core active "CPU0", this App will make sure CPU1/2/3 shuts off while the screen is off.

During screen on time: application reduces lag & speeds up the device for gamers!

Battery Saving?

Battery savings all depends on Usage & idle times.Most People will notice a Huge battery savings using Music App's like Pandora and using the Phone during calls.... etc.....

Others will see increase in battery usage if you are constantly waking the device to peak at mail or just to look at the time every 5 minutes!
